"Hey, you guys haven't gotten married yet, but you're protecting him already," Xiao Si said jokingly. "How about this? We're not gonna bully the beginner. If he loses, he need not give us money. But we'll give him money if we lose."
"That's very nice of you…" Nian Xi hesitated.
"I'm sorry, I disagree." Mo Liuxi who was also dragged into the game, joined the conversation in a bland tone. "What if he had help?"
"Hm." Nian Puntig nodded. "I can't give my money to other people for no good reason, not even to my sister. My money belongs to my wife."
His wife kindly gave him some allowance for the card game. How could he possibly lose it all? He needed to use that money to earn more and to rebuild his fortune.
Nian Xi speechlessly glanced at her brother, who now looked like a slave to his wife. "I've seen no one's brother as stingy as you are. I believe that Sangsang will never agree with what you said."
